The countdown is on.⏳
In less than two days, @btcplusplus Nairobi 🇰🇪 kicks off, marking the first-ever conference in Africa and the first open source edition of the series.
As the title sponsor, we're excited to be part of this milestone moment for the Bitcoin ecosystem.
We'll be in Nairobi alongside developers, researchers, and open-source contributors from around the world, sharing ideas, learning from one another, and building the future of Bitcoin.
If you're attending, come find us, say hello, and join the conversation.
See you in Nairobi. 🚀
📢 We're preparing the Q3 2026 African Bitcoin Ecosystem Infographic!
Is your Bitcoin project building in Africa but not yet listed in our directory?
Now is the time to submit it.
🌍 The African Bitcoin Directory is our live, community-driven map of Bitcoin projects across the continent.
Projects listed in the directory can manage and update their own entries, ensuring the ecosystem stays accurate and up to date.
⚡ Want to be featured in the next ecosystem update?
👇Submit your project today:

Let's continue documenting Africa's Bitcoin story, one project at a time. 🚀
How can wallet fingerprints be used to damage Payjoin privacy? @Arminsdev spent a week in a darkly lit room to study this class of attacks against real-world Payjoins.
Just built a demo BTCPay plugin,
Running Rust inside BTCPay through C#
Rust → C# → BTCPay plugin
It’s a small demo showing how to bring more Rust-based Bitcoin infrastructure into the BTCPay ecosystem.

Thanks to @AlpenLabs (chads 😉) for Bitcoind Async Client.
It’s made payjoin-cli much easier to maintain. And @storopoli cooks upstream requests faster than his picanha hits the grill 🇧🇷🔥
Can't wait for Alpen's mainnet launch, especially real borrowing on Bitcoin rails.
**Solution? Strategic simplicity.** Maintain deep understanding while choosing appropriate engagement levels. Curious: What tools or techniques do you use to balance technical depth with clear communication? 🔧👇 #TechTalk
This complexity can create friction when interacting with those from different mental models. It's not about technical correctness, but managing the recursive nature of understanding itself. #SoftwareDevelopment#Engineering
But here's the paradox: The more patterns you recognize, the harder it becomes to communicate at the right level of abstraction. For example, AWS's "publicly available" triggers thoughts on deployment regions, access mechanisms, and more. #DEVCommunity
🧵 On the Recursive Nature of Technical Communication: Deep technical understanding often reveals multiple layers—implementation, architecture, system interactions, UX patterns, and deployment nuances. #TechCommunication#SystemsThinking
Thank you @lexfridman
I like your simple and straightforward video.
We need #masks4all before we can ease restrictions. This may be the only way to fight the spread until we find a vaccine or a cure.
